Speciation of European bullheads (Cottus spp.): The next problem for taxonomy of northern freshwater fishes

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract High morphological and ecological diversity displayed by European bullheads led Freyhof et al. (2005) to describe 15 nominal species. However, the basis for declaring these nominal species is contentious due to a lack of rigorous statistical analysis of morphological variations among populations, limitations in the inferences made from ...

Diet of juvenile skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris: Ontogenetic shifts, predator–prey size ratios and mouth gape allometry

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris inhabits Gulf of Mexico drainages, primarily the Mississippi River Basin, and estuarine environments in the Gulf of Mexico. The trophic ecology of the skipjack herring is poorly understood, therefore we quantified the length, mouth gape and gut contents of juvenile skipjack herring from the Mississippi ...

Histological characterisation of gonadal sex differentiation in Malabar red snapper (Lutjanus malabaricus) for aquaculture advancement

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Malabar red snapper (Lutjanus malabaricus) is a high‐value tropical marine species receiving growing attention for aquaculture development in Singapore and Southeast Asia. At present, seed production relies primarily on uncontrolled mass spawning in sea cages, a practice that lacks consistency, biosecurity and control of genetic ...

Diagnosis of Mycobacteriosis in Cultured Hybrid Tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) in Trinidad and Tobago

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mycobacteriosis is a significant disease in fish husbandry, with negative impacts on production facilities. Moreover, some Mycobacterium spp. that infect fish have zoonotic potential. Morbidity and mortality events at hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) farms in Trinidad and Tobago (T&T) associated with mycobacterial infections prompted a ...

Salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes: Development, physiological functions, and prospects for improving crop salt tolerance

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review examines salt glands in exo‐recretohalophytes, in which epidermal stem cells differentiate into unicellular, bicellular, or multicellular salt glands. Salt ions are transported to the leaves via the transpiration stream and enter salt glands through symplastic and apoplastic pathways. Finally, salt glands actively secrete salt ions from the
